Tarik - You Don't Know Me lyrics

[Intro: Tarik] Do you feel me, yo? You don't know me, you-you don't know me (come on) Oh yeah (never will, never will) You don't know me, you-you don't know me Oh yeah (listen), oh yeah [Verse 1: Tarik] Now if I told you my story would you understand Or would you just turn away like I'm a homeless man Mommy saying what if music fails, you need another plan I'm just trying to hold it together like a rubber band Cause see I'm constantly hearing about how people change But I got dreams that's bigger than women and fame Not to mention I got these goals I got to obtain Guess I'm hoping that getting money can heal all my pain I'm saying I ain't trying to see my mom stressing over bills no more So I'm going to rap til I don't know how it feel no more Cause that's awfully hard to cope with, for now hopeless Is about the only thing keeping me focused Wondering when it's going to end like a slow shift Get a check and go broke quick damn that gets old quick That's why I got to make a dope hit before these doors close quick Now wait look how they out here taking shots, you know free throwing And girls dropping to their knees but they ain't Tebowing Now how I do business when distracted by pleasure How I know I'll be rewarded for all of my effort What if I don't get recognition for all my records And what if I'm the answer to all my questions But see I never been a loser I ain't into that so next time you quick to criticize me You can consider that [Hook] [Verse 2: Mike Stud] See when everything is right doesn't matter at all Cause I ain't scared of heights, I'm terrified of the fall And all those lonely night I dreamt of having it all But once it's all gone who do we have to call? Nah none of y'all, that's for damn sure But I'm the reason for the party on the dance floor This ain't a sing along or a party track This is music from the heart, no cardiac So listen close, what I say what I mean Cause everything you see isn't what it seems Cause we all have dream of a better place But it's tough to go big when you're feather weight So would you listen if I told you I was scared And that I wish the injury never put me here Yeah I guess we all got a lot to learn Cause not a day goes by that I'm not concerned And like LeBron I got a lot of work in front of me I got a lot to live up to after 23 Right, cause with the gift is a curse But before you judge you should listen up first Cause you don't know I'm a middle cla** kid And that I work my whole life to get where I've been Nah nothing handed on a silver platter Just a true story, in this dream I'm after [Hook]
